My anwser

Andrew presents a compelling argument in favor of address air pollution by imposing environmental taxes on air travel. Admittedly, increasing the cost of flying is an excellent means to convince people to choose a more cheaper way when going out. However, considering the responsibilites of airlines in protecting our nature, I am inclined to let the airlines shoulder the role of investing more environment-frinedly transportation technology instead of add extra taxes on customers. In my view, the airline company is the main character who lead to the pollutions, who should be responsible for the side effect they cause. Airline company, palying an important role in the socialty, not only makes money from their customers, but also needs to invest in more green technologies to help induce the air pollution. For example, as the gallery of the airplane, they can buy more advanced airplanes that cost less energy and reduce less useless air. Therefore, I firmly believe that making airpline company shoulder the responsibility of protecting the environment is effective way to save our earth.

Refined answer by ChatGPT

Andrew raises a compelling point in favor of implementing environmental taxes on air travel to combat air pollution. Increasing the cost of flying could incentivize people to opt for more eco-friendly transportation options, especially for shorter distances. However, I lean towards the perspective that the primary responsibility for mitigating air pollution should rest on the shoulders of airline companies rather than imposing additional taxes on customers. Airlines play a crucial role in both contributing to and addressing environmental issues. Instead of passing the financial burden onto passengers, airlines should invest in green technologies and sustainable practices, such as acquiring energy-efficient aircraft and optimizing flight routes. Holding the aviation industry accountable for its environmental impact is crucial in fostering a more sustainable and responsible approach to air travel.
